Simulect lowers your body's immune system. The immune system helps your body fight infections. The immune system can also fight or "reject" a transplanted organ such as a liver or kidney. This is because the immune system treats the new organ as an invader.

Simulect is used with other medications to prevent organ rejection after a kidney transplant.

Simulect may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
